Love Island star Megan Barton-Hanson says she's working on resolving her spat with Dancing On Ice professional skater Vanessa Bauer.

Megan previously took to Instagram to criticise Vanessa for announcing she had split from her boyfriend Louis Nathaniel on the night of her first performance on the show with Megan's beau Wes Nelson.

The reality TV personality had beef with Vanessa for "not reaching out" to her over her partnership on the show with Wes, who Megan met on Love Island last summer. And she was upset that Vanessa hadn't invited her to watch them training for the ITV1 skating contest.

Model Megan, an ambassador for Manchester fashion brand PrettyLittleThing, told the Loose Women panel: "As a woman she should have reached out and introduced herself."

Asked why contestant Wes couldn't have asked her, Megan explained she felt it wasn't "his place " to invite her to work.

She also addressed why she took the Instagram post down, saying: "I felt that it was getting more press for Dancing On Ice and her."

And she said she was disappointed that headlines about the spat had deflected from Wes' performance.

"We should be a team," she said.

"It should be about him, not the politics behind it and not me and Vanessa."

Megan wrote to Vanessa on a since-deleted Instagram story: "Love that you decide to announce your breakup with your boyfriend on the night of your 1st performance with my boyfriend!"

"You've never reached out to me once or invited me to watch you train, it pained you to introduce yourself to me last night you didn't even look me in the eye LOL."

She added: "Hope the tactical breakup got you the headlines you wanted babe."

Vanessa, who skated with Wes on Sunday night's show, appeared to respond to Megan's post and told her Instagram followers that she was concentrating on the skating.

She said: “Because whenever I’m on the ice everything is good again.

"I’m so grateful for yesterday’s voting window number.

“There is nothing in the world I am more passionate about and that makes me happier than figure skating!
